Winter River Scene

One from the archives taken at Potts Creek in Ontario’s Muskoka Region near the town of Bracebridge. A light snowfall the night before left a pleasing dusting of snow on the rocky backdrop along the river. I remember seeing many toboggan -like tracks in the snow, at this location, which were made by Otters playing in the snow.

This image was originally captured on Fuji Velvia, with a Nikon F80 and a 20-35 f 2.8 lens and scanned on a Nikon Coolscan 5000. If my memory is correct, I believe I used my Singh-Ray 3-stop continuous grad filter, positioned upside down, to bring out the area behind the river which was in slight shadow.
